Yes, Disney has a new "Nemo" project. No, it's not further adventures of the CGI fish. And now "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: Captain Nemo" has a director.

McG will take the helm of the latest version of Jules Verne's novel, according to Variety. This time, though, the family-friendly film will cover Nemo's past, including his construction of the amazing submarine Nautilus. Verne's novel "The Mysterious Island" does paint a dark picture of Nemo's past, including the deaths of his wife and children. No word on how that will be portrayed in the Disney film.
